Another amazing issue. Adams has definitely reinvented Flash Gordon for the 21st century. Every issue is full of great action and storytelling and Conrad's art is just spectacular.
This issue succeeds once more at leaving us on the edge of our seats and in anticipation for the next. This series has quickly become one of the comics I look most forward to getting today. As said before, I can't

Flash Gordon #4
The escape! Flash Gordon, Ming, and Daranek battle their way through Planet Death. Each fallen enemy brings them one step closer to their goal: a ride off this dismal world. The thrilling fourth issue in the hit ongoing series!
Once more Pepose has given us another amazing tale featuring the most unlikely of heroes to save the day. This story gives us more insight into Bli and reminds us he's an important part of the team.
The book really reminds me of those classic sci-fi comics of the Silver and Bronze ages. It really shows how Pepose is an actual fan of what he's writing here. Most comics aren't written by real

Space Ghost #7
In this issue: Our human heroes find themselves trapped on a mysterious jungle planet where they face The Creature King, who commands a host of beasts to do his nefarious bidding. In their most desperate hour of need, the team turns to the one member who can save them-Blip!
An all-new arc begins for the phenomenally successful series as acclaim...
This issue gives us more action than usual. But as usual the Bad guy gets away. We're in the penultimate chapter in our second arc and all 6 of these new foes are still at large and 4 have yet to even be encountered yet. This is why so many critics complain about how slow the series is.
I think one of my favorite things is how it mostly reminds me of more classic Spidey issues. You have Spid

WHO IS THE ULTIMATE BLACK CAT?
Tensions rise between Spider-Man and Green Goblin in the wake of recent events! And a new villain steps up to the plate! What is her connection to the Black Cat on Kingpin's Sinister Six?
Rated T
So far I've been very impressed by this new series. It only seems to get better as it progresses with every issue. Here we have Flash having to rely on his worst enemy to escape this prison world. Anyone who knows the least bit about Flash Gordon should know there's no one you can trust less than Ming the Merciless. After all, he wasn't just given that name by the press. He earned it by his cruelt more
Flash Gordon #2
Flash Gordon is trapped on Planet Death-a place known for fighting, fear, and eventual demise. He needs to get off-planet to save Dale from assassination, but a gauntlet of guards, creatures, and old acquaintances stands in his way.
The exhilarating second issue of the hit ongoing series!
As a fan of the action adventure filled brand of comics I can say Flash Gordon hasn't disappointed at all. This issue alone is a great way of showing why Flash knows he can never trust Ming, who was ready to abandon him without hesitation. As all the issues before, this issue ended off only leaving us waiting for more.
Adams has definitely made a name for himself in the comic world of late w

Flash Gordon #3
Ming the Merciless has been biding his time in the shadows of Planet Death. With time came power--he now "rules" a certain section of the prison. However, when Flash gives him a chance to seek revenge on the rulers that placed him here, the pair are forced to strike an uneasy alliance in a bid for freedom! Who lives? Who dies? Will Planet Death tak...
This was another great issue giving us a stand alone adventure while also continuing with where last issue left off. Like Zorak, Brak and the Widow, Pepose gave us a great intro to this new take on Moltar. Jace's self conflict was also a great plot for the issue. I'm glad to see he was able to deal with it in a single issue rather than a multiple chapter subplot arc like most of today's comics wou more
Space Ghost #6
After the shattering events of issue #5, Robo-Corp is working hard to keep the forces of the Galactic Federation busy and distracted. To that end, they're bringing in their heaviest hitter to aid in their evil scheme - MOLTAR!
Award-winning writer DAVID PEPOSE (Punisher) and superstar artist JONATHAN LAU (Vampirella Strikes) ratchet up the...
A pretty decent start to a new battle. I was really growing tired of the spotlight issues too. I really wish they'd just hurry and get the sword back as well. And I'm not really feeling this Apex thing either. But in regards to the action and regular elements of Thundercat lore we've known for years it's pretty enjoyable. I really think Shalvey needs to get to the point a bit more sometimes, but a more
Thundercats #9
While out on a scouting mission in unexplored terrain, Cheetara encounters a rogue cell of Mu'Tants. In the course of subduing them, she discovers that a much larger Mu'Tant horde led by Slithe is mobilizing to attack the last survivors of Thundera at that very second!
Now the ThunderCats' swiftest warrior must reach the Cat's Lair before ...
Another satisfactory issue. Not as thrilling as most of Loeb's other Batman works, but I expect a boost in momentum in time. After all we're just 2 issues in. Plus I really doubt he was as prepared for this as he was the rest. I have a feeling it was rushed as part of DC's desperation to save itself and win back the old fans they've taken for granted for so long.
Still Loeb proves he still h

Batman: The Long Halloween: The Last Halloween #2
KLAUS JANSON JOINS JEPH LOEB FOR THE SECOND INSTALLMENT OF THE LONG HALLOWEEN SEQUEL! In 1996, writer Jeph Loeb and artist Tim Sale teamed up for Batman: The Long Halloween, an award-winning 13-chapter saga that spawned multiple sequels and stands as the most influential Batman story of its era. Now, Loeb returns to the world of The Long Halloween ...
A pretty good start. The only downside is that cumbersome title. But it's a good start to the usual kind of mystery we'd expect from Loeb. It's too soon to tell if it can live up to its predecessors in this trilogy, but I'm hoping it will.
If you plan to only read one current Batman book like I am this is the one I'd recommend.
Batman: The Long Halloween: The Last Halloween #1
In 1996, writer Jeph Loeb and artist Tim Sale teamed for Batman: The Long Halloween, an award-winning 13-chapter saga that spawned multiple sequels and stands as the most influential Batman story of its era. Now, Loeb returns to the world of The Long Halloween for its long-anticipated final act: Batman: The Last Halloween, an all-new 10-part myster...
For the most part this was an enjoyable story. Unfortunately this conclusion left much to be desired. It really was just a copy of the Return of the Joker movie. Only here we got the fate they had to pass on because it was too violent at the time. The end looked like t may work out for Jason, but they chose something much more disappointing.
One of the other problems with this book didn't ev

From the DC Vault: Death in the Family: Robin Lives! #4
JASON TODD AND THE JOKER - WORKING TOGETHER?! Over 30 years ago, history was made when fans voted to kill the second Robin, Jason Todd. Now, DC continues the alternate story of what would have happened if he had lived... Will Batman be able to bring Robin back from the brink of madness...or lose the boy forever? And, in losing Jason, will he lose h...
I guess it was a decent enough issue. Very little to do with Spider-Man at all. Hickman definitely likes to build stuff up slowly, that's for sure. The honest truth is if the original Spider-Man comic started this slow it never would've lasted though. And while I liked seeing how things are developing for the team of Ben and Jonah I have to say the lack of Spidey action is making my interest weake more

J. JONAH JAMESON, BEN PARKER AND THE GREEN GOBLIN COLLIDE!
Fan-favorite duo Ben Parker and J. Jonah Jameson take center stage in this investigative mystery issue! But in this world of shadows and secrets, every unturned rock leads to danger... And they'll soon have to decide which is the greater challenge - uncovering secrets or keeping t...
THIS is what you get when a writer is allowed to make up stories themselves rather than write plots revolving around the editorial staff's bad ideas. It also shows what happens when they focus more on good storytelling instead of ways to ensure each issue will become a key issue.
Who'd think you could fill such action, adventure and great storytelling into a simple 2 part story anymore? This

"Today marks the new dawn of the Devourer... All hail the Locust of the Apocalypse!"
Space Ghost, Jan, Jace and Blip face the horror that is Zorak and the Cult of Lokar in this action-packed issue! With Zorak seizing the upper hand, Space Ghost is faced with an impossible battle... and one which has a shocking ending that will stay with the goo...
Another satisfying action filled issue. I think it may have wrapped up a bit quick and left a couple of loose ends, but it definitely leaves me waiting for what's next with high anticipation.
I can't say I liked the bad guy not getting his due, but he knows Dick Tracy will be on the lookout. I just hope Big Boy doesn't remain such a constant factor as Tracy has tons of other villains out the

THE HIGH-OCTANE FINALE TO THE FIRST DICK TRACY ADVENTURE
Dick Tracy's world is crumbling, and the iconic detective in yellow isn't sure where to turn or who to trust! As the City is engulfed in a vengeance-fueled gang war, Tracy must come to terms with a shocking betrayalthat will turn his entire world upside down on the eve of his greatest bat...
A pretty good issue with some good action. We haven't really seen much since #6. I still enjoy the Jameson and Uncle Ben subplots. Those headlines of theirs shows more of what I'd like to see. Spider-Man in action and actually beating the bad guy like he used to. Jonah's feelings on Spider-Man still aren't clear so I still wonder if he'll consider him a menace or something else. It's amazing how U more

WILL CURIOSITY KILL THESE 'CATS?
As the ThunderCats continue to fortify their settlement on Third Earth, youngsters WilyKat and WilyKit decide that their former playmate Lion-O's rules about leaving the compound are too restrictive. But after striking out on their own to explore their new planet, they discover a terrifying secret - one tha...
This was a satisfying conclusion to this series. While it lacked the adventure sense I so miss from the show it was still a fun issue and a great tribute to Golden and Silver Age comics. It was also a great way to wrap up all the mysterious alien encounters the group has had. It ties all 5 of these stand alone stories together and gives us some closure.
I really hate seeing no new DW announc

Justice Ducks #5
THE WINGS OF JUSTICE NEVER TIRE!
Just as crime never sleeps, so too do DARKWING DUCK and his faithful compatriots in the Justice Ducks (STEGMUTT, GIZMODUCK, NEPTUNIA, and MORGANA) resist the siren song of slumber until all threats from menacing miscreants have been managed. But that's probably going to take a while, so maybe they'll just rest t...
Another great issue. It's doubtful the Turtles have seen the last of the Pantheon. That's especially obvious for Hob, since he escaped to Earth too. The only downside is we didn't learn much about Scratch, who is a popular attraction for collectors of the original toy line.
By the way, they seemed to forget while designing cover B that Splinter is supposed to dislike Pizza. I remember when t

TMNT: Saturday Morning Adventures #16
The universe's greatest criminal organization has been made aware of a new planet to exploit: the primitive backwater known as Earth! Before the Pantheon can move in and start profiting, though, they must get the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles out of their way. Kidnapping and ensnaring the Turtles in a brainwashing simulation seems easy enough... unt...
This has been an exciting arc. Probably one of my favorite since IDW took over the Sonic brand. I'm finding Surge's development as a character one of the more interesting subplots of this story. It seems she enjoys being seen as a hero, but still has a violent temper. She and Kit are understandably tired of evil people like Clutch controlling and using them. I'm interested in seeing what Kit's pla more
Sonic The Hedgehog #72
Being the Phantom Rider isn't easy, but there's no rest for the wicked. Sonic is caught in a literal perfect storm of a traffic jam, all while he's pursued by the relentless Jet the Hawk! Perhaps an unexpected meeting-and reveal-will help raise his spirits? Meanwhile, aboard the Restoration's ship, Tails and Amy's luck finally runs out!
While it seems to lack a little of that knack Duke and Cobra Commander had, this is still pretty good. It certainly delivers in the action and intrigue department, and the end of this issue also makes one more eager to learn more about what the Energon Universe G.I. Joe world will be like.
I'm truly looking forward to the new ongoing G.I. Joe. I've heard more hype for it than any of DC's Abso

Destro #3
Stranded in the mountains without any weapons, Destro must survive Chameleon's wrath. But who is Chameleon? And why do they want Laird Destro dead?
This book is a regular reminder that good comics are still possible even in times like these where the world of P.C. corruption has even contaminated an industry you used to think was safe from such things. As long as the book is written with imagination and no personal views are implemented you can still make a book worth getting, and Transformers is proof.
This issue certainly leaves off wi
